Anticipation

An-tic-i-pay-ay-ay-shun is making me glad....who sings that song? Carly Simon? Anyway, in about 10 hours (nah, I'm HARDLY counting down....) I'll be getting ready to head south for a weekend of no boyz, no Hubby, and a little R&R with the girls! I'm sooooooo psyched. I've managed to make it through this week with a sense of peace and calm...just knowing that I will be leaving on Friday has helped me to tolerate pretty much everything--backtalk, crying, snotty noses (notice the plural form), poopy diapers (again, VERY plural), temper tantrums, messy spills, you name it.[Sidebar: Hubby is like most men and is unable to multi-task. Therefore, when I return on Monday, I am fully prepared for the children to have been well taken care of, but my house will be in total disarray. He CANNOT do both. This much I know.]I need to somehow bottle this feeling of excited anticipation--If only I could keep this mentality when I don't have anywhere to go!!!P.S. My mommy rant for the day: Why have so many people asked me if Hubby is going to be "babysitting" the boyz while I'm gone??? It's called PARENTING, people!!! Yes, he'll be PARENTING them.Back on Monday.
